Neuroradiologist joins Holmes

Dr. Nasser Razack, an interventional neuroradiologist, has joined the medical staff at Health First Holmes Regional Medical Center.

Razack will develop and direct Health First's neurointerventional radiology program. The goal is to provide around-the-clock services to patients.

Razack spent the past 10 years working with several hospital systems in the state - most recently in St. Petersburg and Sarasota as director of neurointervention at the Palms of Pasadena Hospital, Northside Hospital and Sarasota Hospital.

He received his medical degree from State University of New York at Buffalo and completed his residency training at North Shore University Hospital, New York University School of Medicine in New York City. This was followed by a fellowship in diagnostic neuroradiology at the University of Virginia.

Razack is certified by the American Board of Radiology with additional qualifications in neuroradiology.

"We entered into this agreement so we can continue to ensure a consistent and efficient process at all Health First facilities, and to help us to achieve our goals of quality, no harm, customer experience and stewardship," said Health First Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer Stuart Mitchell.

"Health care in the United States is evolving quickly," Brown said. "Part of the recent changes involves a consolidation and integration of hospital-based medical care services. Health First continues to move in the direction of efficient, quality care with a focus on the patient experience and we are very excited about this partnership."
